support python3

This patch enables python3 support for cerbero. It's a single codebase, but I
had to drop support for 2.5 as it would make things just too ugly.

Mostly, this addresses changes in iterating over lists and dictionaties, and
some byte/string stuff to supports python3's notion of unicode.

Running cerbero with python3 and enabling the python3 variant does however
create some redundancy I'd still like to get rid of. When enabling the python3
variant, gobject-introspection will depend on python3, which in turn will get
built from source. This seems unneeded, since python3 is obviously already
available.
